Regarding the NYTimes story: he posted a response here. http://www.wireless.is/projects/crows/correction.php http://www.wireless.is/projects/crows/correction.php If what he says in his response is true, then it means that some shoddy reporting and fact-checking by a NYTimes intern did an enormous amount of damage - not just to Klein, but everyone involved in his research, including his advisor and both universities. Regarding the talk: I agree that he does give the impression that the coin box experiment has already succeeded and he's ready to move on to more practical applications, when in fact his research is still in its early stages. It's a mistake, but a long shot from what the person in the original article has done (and what the NYTimes has potentially done to Klein's career).
